FRIED BABY POTATOES

This year's harvest of potatoes wasnt very good. Maybe due to the stubborn insistence on organic farming (read no pesticides were sprayed resulting in heavy ant attack.). However the baby potatoes were unharmed. This is a very simple yet lovely recipe using baby potatoes. 
WE NEED
  1. 200 grams Baby potatoes
  2. 1 tsp Cumin/Jeera seeds
  3. Salt to taste
  4. 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  5. 1 tbs oil
LETS GET GOING
  1. Wash the baby potatoes well and cut into halves
  2. Heat oil in a non-stick pan. Sputter the jeera seeds and add the potatoes.
  3. Cook covered for ten minutes over a low flame.
  4. Add the salt and turmeric and cook uncovered over a slow flame for 10 minutes till the potatoes turn golden brown and crunchy.
